". This report approves the new fisheries agreement with Mozambique, which will last for three years and will have a fishing quota of 1 000 tonnes of deep-water shrimp, with a further 535 tonnes of by-catches and fishing possibilities for 35 freezer tuna seiners and 14 surface longliners, and the main beneficiary will be the Spanish fleet. The overall financial compensation will total just over EUR four million per year. We should stress that the first agreement, signed in 1988, was condemned by Mozambique in 1993, evaluating the development of its own fishing industry. This report warrants my broad support, although I wish to express three reservations. Firstly, Portugal will gain only 150 tonnes of shrimp (plus 80 by-catches) and permits for five longliners, despite the needs of its fleet and despite its traditions of fishing in Mozambican waters. Secondly, the fleet must commit to the sustainable management of the fishing effort in Mozambican waters, and this, according to the rapporteur, appears to be guaranteed. Lastly, we must support the development of the local fisheries sector, not only under the provisions of this agreement, but in the context of our cooperation and development policy with Mozambique."@en1
